Switching from c 16 to q 16
long story short, ive been running c-16 through #42 green top injectors for quite some time, made great power,( but im on a motor tune, i dont have a turbo or super charger). c-16 is for turbo-supercharger or big nitrous
im going to be running a 150 shot of nitrous which means some timing will be taken out so im thinking of going to q 16 as it makes more power at lower timing as well as burning faster and having oxygen in the fuel...
i have a stroker motor, nice compression, i cant say much more than that because my competition looks at my posts on here.
its as simple as draining my tank adding q-16 and getting a re tune right? my current #42 green tops are no where near full duty cycle now, so shouldnt be an issue...
any input appreciated

yup the MTBE is harsh on fuel parts.. look on the bullet, most everyone running it after a race is draining the tank and flushing it.. smells like **** to lol.
Na you will pick up power and as you said you need more fuel because of the oxygenation.
Nitrous You can use it, but will make the tuneup more difficult and finicky.

im running 42# svt green tops that if i believe were at 80% duty cycle, i still have some room to bump up for the q 16 right?
is the q 16 really that much more harsh then the c 16?

dont do it unless you upgrade to a bigger injector....
you are already at 80%... its just pushing it too far to be useful
you will need closer to 8-10% more fuel, and your tune up wont be as forgiving as c16
you will need to clean the injectors OFTEN with q16...and you will need to flush out your system after every race day
once the stuff is in your tank over night, it needs to be thrown away...its no good past about 12-18 hours....
and expect it to gum up everything...
seriously, be ready to clean out your fuel system OFTEN with q16
oh, and dont get it on your skin... that **** causes cancer..LOL
